Prop firm profit split: what you actually take home
The profit split is your share. But the headline number isn't the whole story: payout frequency, add-ons and fees count too.
What's normal
Most firms start at 80%. Some pay 85% or 90% from the start, and a few go to 100% with scaling or a paid add-on.
Add-ons and scaling
Lots of firms sell a higher split at checkout, usually 10–20% more on the fee for 90%. Others raise it automatically after a few payouts or as the account grows.
See who pays 90%+ on our high split list.
What you actually get
Payouts come in US dollars (or stablecoins), so conversion to naira and transfer fees eat into it. Watch fees from Rise and crypto networks.
Is higher always better?
Not if it comes with stricter rules or a bigger fee. 80% with a static drawdown can pay you more than 90% with a trailing limit you keep hitting.
Your questions, answered
Typical split?
80% is standard, 90% widely available as an add-on.
Is the fee taken from my profit?
No, and many firms refund it with your first or third payout.
